Crystal Palace eye €15m move for Frankfurt midfielder Fares Chaibi

Algerian-French attacking midfielder Fares Chaibi is being linked with a move from Bundesliga club Frankfurt to Premier League side Crystal Palace.

Chaibi, 23, is under contract with Frankfurt until 30 June 2028, meaning any deal would require Palace to reach an agreement with the German club rather than wait for the player to become a free agent.

His listed market value is €15m, placing a potential transfer in that region if the clubs were to negotiate from the current valuation. The rumour was recorded on 14 August 2026, with no probability attached to the proposed move.

Chaibi’s profile as an attacking midfielder is the central detail in the reported interest, with Palace named as the club linked to a player currently competing in Germany’s top flight. He holds Algerian and French nationality.

The midfielder remains a Frankfurt player and has two years remaining on his contract.
